Irony Overload

Yes, I know in the end, he called it off, but others did not. The extreme irony of it all stands.

Arrrrrrgh, Matey?

We were discussing the hijacking of a Saudi oil tanker by pirates at Guys Night Out last night. I wonder if the pirates understand they'd be a perfect target for Obama to prove he is "tough in foreign policy" without actually having to wage war. Or for Bush to have something on his legacy that doesn't require Congressional approval. One detachment of marines and suddenly the vessel is "liberated" and all the USA would be doing is enforcing international law.

My advice to the pirates. Get while the getting is good.
